New Covid lab Software Claims to have solved the testing deficiencies caused by the Massive Rise in COVID-19 Testing

In the beginning of the pandemic the need for COVID-19 testing hit so fast, many labs had to quickly piece together generic out of the box software systems to accommodate the sheer volume and unique remote site testing taking place. In doing so, they soon found issues that they had to work around. Some common issues they deal with are multi-system communication bugs, inability to efficiently track patient sample pick-up and deliveries, issue resolution, dealing with high volume paper requisition forms causing extensive manual input, data entry errors, all leading to time delays and increased costs.

A company called Req Right seems to have solved all these issues. Req Right is a full stack development company that before the pandemic specialized in developing laboratory centric automated workflow systems. Their systems offered customizable workflows for a variety of test types and enabled their clientele to scale efficiently and cost effectively. “Their history in the laboratory space made is simple for them to quickly pivot into the direction of solving workflow issues for high-volume COVID testing,” says CEO Jeff Merrick.

Req Right is located in Orange County, California and pride themselves on the fact that all of their software is created and managed at their Southern California location. Development is led by their Co-founder and CTO, Mr. Daniel Baker. Daniel is known to be a savant code writer who began writing code at the age of 10 and is currently proficient in writing all languages of code. Daniel and his team are sometimes faced with insufficient laboratory Information Systems (LIS) in relation to the implementation of supportive end-to-end automation and “to date they have always been able to create custom code to overcome any and every challenge”, says CTO Daniel Baker. Req Right considers themselves a boutique technology partner and understand that each labs needs are unique and therefore they offer a set of free custom development hours per month with every plan.

Throughout the pandemic they continuously meet labs that feel stuck using inadequate systems due to fear of disruption. They understand the fear is caused by typically costly, slow, and inadequate implementation. Req Right has overcome that fear by offering a 10-day, non-disruptive implementation process. Their process involves connectivity to the labs LIS and extensive testing prior to pushing the labs new customized workflow system live. Once the system goes live their client’s staff is trained in just a few hours and then immediately begin to enjoy the benefits of being able to accommodate an unlimited number of clients and test site locations with customizable features for all unique locations needs.

Scaling with Req Right is simple, manageable, and compliant. Their clients have been scaling from inception and regularly use the system as a key tool in landing major accounts. You can learn more about Req Right at http://www.reqrightlabsoftware.com.
